ArthroStim Instrument Technique
The ArthroStim® produces a rapid recoiling thrust at a rate of twelve times per second. This frequency (known as the low beta somatomotor rhythm) is twice the speed of other instruments. This rapidity supersaturates the area with specific adjustive energy (forces).
The energy continues to ripple through the joint to surrounding fringe tissues. This releases secondary trigger points and sites of muscular spasm, providing the relief and corrections that doctors want. Patients frequently notice a positive difference with the first treatment.
The ArthroStim® Instrument delivers true high-velocity, short-stroke thrusts. The rapid thrust and unique recoil produced by the ArthroStim® activates the patients’ proprioceptors and mechanoreceptors without recruiting the pain receptors (nocioceptors), providing a very comfortable experience.
